Kitchen/Dining Area

The expansive kitchen/dining room is filled with natural light from the large sliding patio door and glass roof light. There are also high-level side windows in the dining area which have prismatic privacy glass.

Sitting Room

At the front of the property, there is a ground floor sitting room, complete with a comfy sofa, window bench seat, oversized bean bags, large Smart TV and a built-in wood burning stove. You can open the folding doors between the sitting room and kitchen/dining area to create one big open plan room that makes a great space for socialising and bringing your family together. Alternatively, in the cooler months, keep the doors closed and create a cosy, snug sitting room where you can chill out and watch a film on the large Smart TV while roasting in front of the built-in wood burning stove.

There is also a selection of children’s toys stored in the drawers under the window seat and some games on the shelves to help keep everyone entertained. Please note that Seaward allows children of 5 years and over or babies in arms.

Staying at
Seaward

Quick guide to your location

Burnham Overy Staithe beach offers breath taking views, a wonderful, secluded Norfolk beach, only a mile walk from the Staithe.

For immediate access to the coast, Burnham Overy Staithe has a small fishing harbour and supports a local industry based mostly around the local shellfish. Excellent coastal walks are numerous, but a special mention must go the isolated bay that can be accessed from the harbour.

The village pub, The Hero is well worth a visit while you are here, offering great food and a warm welcome!
